When to hear from venue?

bliss_balloons , 28 January, 2015 at 12:34 Posted on Planning 0 7

I was just wondering when everyone had contact with their venue. I haven't heard anything from them since we booked last January and have no idea how long before the wedding it's normal to go in to discuss the day or when we get our menu tasting.

    We booked our venue last year for our wedding in August this year. I emailed the co-ordinator asking when she would like to meet up and we arranged a meeting for February. I don't have a definitive answer for you but I hope that at least gives you an idea!

    We're getting married 1st August and going to see the co-ordinator tonight. We contacted her, so we may be a little early, but i have some nagging points I wanted to talk over with her.

    Our coordinator said we'd have a meeting 6 months before, but this is also when 50% of the balance is due.

    He told us last week that we could arrange a 1 year visit if we wanted one. I think we're going to try for a 9 month visit so we know how much we're going to need to pay 3 months later!

    If you're worried, send them an email! It can't do any harm Smiley smile

    I've kept in periodic touch with mine and handled by saying, "I'm approaching the 6 month mark and just want to check in with you to make sure everything's OK. Are you waiting for anything from me? When would be good for us to have a futher chat?" and just kept it really informal. It's the approach that highighted our photographer was likely to and indeed did let us down. Any worthy supplier would have no problem with you just checking in.

    Thanks. Didn't know whether I was just being too keen! I'll drop them an email to see when the best time to go in is.

    I would just give them a quick phone call - nice to touch base and see what the next steps are. They should have really followed up with you thought!?
